Morpheus8
by INMODE
Stimulate the production of collagen and resurface your skin to discover a younger looking you.
What is Morpheus8?
Morpheus8 is a fractional skin treatment
that stimulates collagen production of the
underlying layers of the dermis. By targeting
the deeper layers of the skin, tissues of the
face and body can be remodeled to reveal a
more radiant youthful appearance.
What Areas Can Be Treated?
Morpheus8 can be used on any areas that
can benefit from resurfacing and subdermal
renewal. The most commonly treated areas
include the face, periorbital area, abdomen,
thighs, legs, and buttocks.
How Does It Work?
Morpheus8 is a fractional device with programmable penetration depth and energy delivery. The coated needles penetrate into
the sub-dermal tissue, coagulating the fat and contracting connective tissue. Simultaneously, directional RF energy generates bulk
sub-necrotic heat in the dermis.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q How many sessions are recommended?
A
Your practitioner will recommend the optimal
number of sessions to be performed based on
your personal objectives. Treatment times and
frequency will be specifically tailored to obtain
the optimal results.
Q How quickly will I see results?
A
Visible results can be seen within a few days,
but typically after three weeks the most
noticeable results appear. Improvements
continue up to three months after treatment.
Q Can this be used in combination with other treatments?
A
Yes, Morpheus8 can be used in the same
treatment session, or a few days after
other treatments. Morpheus8 can also
be combined with other lnMode energy
treatments or injectables to achieve more
extensive results.
Q What is the benefit of fractionated energy?
A
Radiofrequency (RF) energy is a scientifically
proven method to remodel and rebuild
collagen. It is minimally invasive, using a matrix
of micro pins to renew the deeper layers of the
skin with almost no patient downtime.
Q Can anyone use Morpheus8?
A
The benefit of Morpheus8’s color blind
technology is that it can be used on all skin
types. The unique properties allow even darker
tones to be treated.
Q What kind of post procedure care is required?
A
Patients should moisturize the treatment
area and avoid direct sun exposure. It is also
recommended that patients use a broad
spectrum sunscreen every day. In addition to
reducing the risk of skin cancer, sunscreens
also slow the aging process.
Q When can I put make-up on after treatment?
A
Since patient downtime is minimal,
makeup can be applied 1 to 2 days after the
treatment. Patients should expect to see
micro lesions a few days after treatment
and slight redness depending on treatment
parameters.

Radiofrequency for Fat Removal and Skin tightening of the Body
Authors: Erez Dayan, MD, Joseph Marte, Spero Theodorou MD
- Significant advancements in minimally invasive body contouring have been made over the past 10 years.
- Increasingly, patients are seeking minimally invasive methods to tighten skin and remodel adipose tissue. A large treatment gap exists among 3 types of patients: the younger demographic, who desire soft tissue tightening without traditional operations, scars, and downtime; patients with soft tissue laxity who are not "severe enough" to justify an excisional procedure, but not "mild enough" to rely on liposuction with soft tissue contraction alone; and those with recurrent laxity who already underwent the traditional excisional procedure. In these populations, aesthetic surgeons risk undertreating or overtreating with traditional methods.
Radiofrequency Rejuvenation of the “Tweener” Patient: Under, Over, or Through the Skin
Authors: Joanna Kam, MD; Ariel Frost, MD; Jason D. Bloom, MD, FACS
Abstract: The demand for noninvasive facial rejuvenation continues to increase as younger, well-informed patients enter the aesthetic market. We refer to a subset of these patients as “tweeners,” those who present with early signs of neck and facial aging, but who have not yet developed changes significant enough to warrant a traditional excisional surgery approach. Many of these patients are in search of a minimally invasive intervention, a bridge in between observation and surgery. The authors describe their experience with radiofrequency (RF) technology as an in-office tool to address the aging face in select patient population. This review also attempts to comprehensively search the existing body of literature to describe the RF technologies and devices available for facial rejuvenation.
The Basic Science of Radiofrequency-Based Devices
Authors: Michael Kreindel and Dr. Stephen Mulholland
Abstract: This chapter outlines the basic science and specific principles of operation for radiofrequency (RF) technologies with a focus on minimally-invasive applications enhancing liposuction procedure. Before discussing the parameters, settings and techniques for radiofrequency-assisted lipolysis (RFAL) and fractional RF subdermal treatment, it is important to understand the fundamentals of the basic science of RF technologies and applications. The chapter accurately describes the physics of the processes occurring during RF-based treatment, and the factors affecting its safe and efficacious outcome. The discussion of RF-based devices will use terminology and definitions provided by FDA guidance for electrosurgical devices.Measurements and computer simulations conducted by the authors to illustrate importance of different parameters for the specific treatments of skin and subcutaneous fat are also presented.
The use of radiofrequency-assisted lipolysis with radiofrequency microneedling in premature jowl and neck laxity following facialplasty
Authors: D. Demesh MD, R. Cristel MD, N. Gandhi MD, E. Kola MS, S. Dayan MD, FACS
Background: A subset of facelift patients have premature redevelopment of skin laxity in the lower face and neck. Many patients seek alternatives to revision facelifts to avoid high risks and costs. Radiofrequency-assisted lipolysis (RFAL) with Radiofrequency (RF) microneedling may be alternative minimally invasive options.
Aesthetic Applications of Radiofrequency: Lymphatic and Perfusion Assessment
Authors: Erez Dayan MD, Spero Theodorou MD, Rod J. Rohrich MD, A. Jay Burns MD
Background: The use of radiofrequency in aesthetics has increased in popularity since the early 2000s. To date, there have been limited studies investigating the effect of thermal energy secondary to radiofrequency treatment. The purpose of this study was to evaluate perfusion and lymphatic assessment tools pre and post bipolar and fractional radiofrequency treatment.
Plume Effect of Fractional Radiofrequency Versus Laser Resurfacing: Considerations in the COVID-19 Pandemic
Authors: Erez Dayan, MD; Spero Theodorou, MD; Bruce Katz MD; Jeffrey S. Dover, MD;
Summary: The COVID‐19 pandemic requires us all to re‐evaluate aesthetic practices to ensure optimal patient safety during elective procedures. Specifically, energy based devices and lasers require special consideration, as they may emit plume which has been shown to contain tissue debris and aerosolized biological materials. Prior studies have shown transmission of viruses and bacteria via plume (i.e., HIV and papillomavirus). The purpose of this study was to evaluate plume characteristics of the Er:YAG resurfacing laser (Sciton; Palo Alto, CA) and compare it to the Morpheus8 fractional radiofrequency device (InMode; Lake Forest, CA).
Multimodal Radiofrequency Application for Lower Face and Neck Laxity
Authors: Erez Dayan, MD; Paolo Rovatti, MD; Sherrell Aston, MD; Christopher T. Chia, MD; Rod Rohrich, MD; Spero Theodorou, MD
Background: Nonexcisional facial skin tightening has long been an elusive goal in aesthetic surgery. The “treatment gap” includes cases who are not “severe” enough for excisions surgery but not “mild” enough for most traditional noninvasive aesthetic modalities. In this retrospective review, we present the largest evaluation to date of radiofrequency (RF) skin tightening technology combination including bipolar RF (FaceTite; InMode) and fractional bipolar RF (Fractora modified to Morpheus8; InMode).

Summary: The use of radiofrequency for soft tissue tightening has increased over the past 10 years. Both minimally invasive and noninvasive devices are frequently in use. This article describes the different types of radiofrequency technology and the current evidence behind their safety and efficacy.
